What is Discovery Zone?
Discovery Zone is a collection of resources designed to support individual and classroom explorations of Shakespeare’s texts.
Who is it for?
Suitable for students of a broad range of ages, experience levels, and learning styles, Discovery Zone invites individuals to bring their own unique identities and perspectives to their understanding of Shakespeare.
How does it connect to the BC curriculum Well organized, extremely entertaining.?
Let us count the ways! When we launch the full collection in late 2024/early 2025, the resources will include connections to the BC curriculum and strategies for assessment to support classroom teachers as they engage their students with the expansive content of Shakespeare’s plays.
